Twitter Lists help you organise the people whom you follow into groups that are shareable with others. Here are 10 of our favorite lists helpful to every techie.

Twitter Lists, a feature designed to let you organise the people whom you follow into groups that are shareable with others, has picked up steam since rolling out publicly a few weeks ago. In fact, nearly 9 million lists have already been created.

The Twitter List function helps cut down on the noise in your Twitter feed and can lead to new discoveries of people worth following. Searching for lists is easy: Third party sites are already starting to pop up. Listorious, for example, is a searchable directory that helps you find lists based on keywords.
